-
If the product is brought from a cold into a warm room (e.g. for transport), it is possible that condensation develops.
Therefore, first let the product reach room temperature before connecting it to the power supply. This may take several hours. There is danger to life from electric shock from the mains unit otherwise! -
Do not pull the mains plug from the mains socket by pulling the cable.
-
If the mains adapter or mains cable are damaged, do not touch it. Danger to life from electric shock!First deactivate all sides of the mains socket to which the mains adapter is connected (e.g. switch off the respective fuse or turn out the fuse. Then deactivate the associated FI protection switch). Only then pull the mains plug from the mains socket and take the product to a specialist workshop.
-
It can be assumed that safe operation is no longer possible if:
- the device shows any visible damage,
- the device no longer works
- the device was stored under unfavourable conditions for an extended period of time
- if it was subjected to heavy stress during transport
-
Disconnect the product from the power supply if not used for an extended period (e.g. during storage).
-
Do not leave packaging material unattended. It may become a dangerous toy for children.
-
In commercial institutions, the accident prevention regulations of the Employer’s Liability Insurance As-sociation for Electrical Systems and Operating Materials are to be observed.

If there are any questions that are not answered in this operating manual, contact our technical support or another expert.
Battery Notices
- Keep batteries out of reach of children.
- Do not leave any batteries lying around openly. There is a risk of batteries being swallowed by children or pets. If swallowed, consult a doctor immediately. Danger to life!
- Leaking or damaged batteries may cause chemical burns to skin when touched. Use adequate protective gloves in this case.
- Liquids leaking from batteries are chemically highly aggressive. Objects or surfaces that come into contact with them may take severe damage. Therefore, keep batteries in a suitable location.
- Make sure that batteries are not short-circuited, dismantled or thrown into fire. There is a danger of explosion!
- Replace an empty battery in the IR remote control as soon as possible against a new one or removed the used-up battery from the IR remote control. An empty battery may leak and damage the IR remote control. Loss of warranty/guarantee!
- Make sure that the battery is inserted in the IR remote control with the correct polarity (observe positive/+ and negative/-).
- For the environmentally friendly disposal of batteries, observe the chapter „Disposal“.
Commissioning
-
Inserting Battery in the IR Remote Control, Battery Replacement
The battery may already be inserted in the IR remote control. If a small plastic strip is present in the battery compartment, pull it out. It serves to protect against premature discharge of the battery.
- Check during first commissioning whether the battery compartment of the IR remote control has a plastic protective strip. If so, pull it out. The IR remote control is then ready for use.
- A battery change is required if the range of the IR remote control drops or the monitor no longer reacts to the IR remote control at all.
- The locking clip at the battery compartment must be unlatched, e.g. with a flat screwdriver, upon which the battery holder and battery can be pulled out.
Replace the empty battery with a new one of type CR2025. Always observe the correct polarity (plus/+ and minus/-) when inserting the battery. The plus pole of the battery is marked with the icon „+“ and must point towards the bottom of the IR remote control. Push the battery holder back into the IR remote control. Observe correct orientation. Do not apply any force!
-
Setup or Installation
Operation with standing base:-
The standing base is already attached to the monitor at delivery. Fold it down to set up the motor.
-
The monitor can be set up on a stable, level, sufficiently large area, via the standing base.
-
Protect valuable furniture surfaces from scratches or pressure points with suitable pads.
Operation with monitor holder: -
Alternatively to replacement of the standing base, you may use a suitable monitor holder for wall assembly, for examp-le (not enclosed in the scope of delivery, available as accessories).
Proceed as follows: -
Remove the standing base from the rear of the monitor. First disconnect the cover flap from the holder. Then turn the 2 screws below to the left and right out and remove the standing base.
-
The assembly holes at a hole distance of 75 x 75 mm permits screwing the monitor onto the monitor holder. Obser-ve the operating instructions for the monitor holder used by you.
Caution!
The screws with which the monitor is attached to the monitor holder must not be too long. When the screws are too deeply turned into the monitor, the monitor is damaged; loss of warranty/guarantee! The turning-in depth must not exceed 5 mm. Furthermore, the monitor holder must be suitable for the monitor weight.

-
Connection
-
Low-voltage round socket for connection of the external power supply, 12 V/DC, 2 A
Connect this socket to the low voltage round plug of the enclosed mains adapter. Then connect the mains adapter to a mains socket with a protective contact via the associated mains cable. -
HDMI-IN“: HDMI-socket (digital input)
The HDMI socket can be connected via a suitable cable, e.g. to a corresponding output of a DVR, a digital receiver, a computer or Blu-ray or DVD player. When the playbac k device permits the setting of the screen resolution, observe that no higher resolution is set. Otherwise, the screen shows no image or only an error message. If the HDMI-input is activated, the monitor issues the audio signal contained in the HDMI AV signal and received via the integrated speaker (instead of the audio signal of an analogue audio input „A-IN“). -
VGA-IN“: VGA socket (analogue input)
Connect the VGA-socket to the analogue VGA output of a computer (or the VGA output of another device). Do not set a higher resolution than 800 x 600 at the playback device (e.g. at the connected computer) (image repeat frequency max. 60 Hz). Otherwise, the monitor shows no image or only an error message. -
V-IN1“: Cinch socket (analogue input 1 for video signal)
For example, a monitoring camera with analogue video output can be connected here. If your camera has no cinch connection, the corresponding adapters are available in accessories trade. -
V-IN2“: Cinch socket (analogue input 2 for video signal)
As for the video input 1, e.g., a monitorin g camera with analogue video output can be connected here. If your camera has no cinch connection, the corresponding adapters are available in accessories trade. -
V-OUT“: Cinch socket (analogue video output)
The signal pending at the video input „V-IN1“ or „V-IN2“ is passed through here to be recorded, e.g., on an external recorder. When switching to another video input („HDMI-IN“ or „VGA-IN“), the video output shows the image of -
A-IN“: Plug socket 3.5 mm (analogue audio input)
The input can be connected, e.g. to the audio output of your computer, via a suitable cable (not enclosed). The monitor issues the audio signal via the integrated speaker. -
A-OUT“: Plug socket 3.5 mm (analogue audio output)
The audio signal that you feed in at the analogue audio input (7) is passed through here, e.g. to record it on an external recorder.
